RIGHTS OF ELMHURST
BOULEVARD COMPANY
DISCUSSED BY SECRETARY T. H.
WATKINS.
Company Was Organized by Public
Spirited Citizens to Creato a Drive
way That Would Open Up tho
Mountain Side to tho Public.
Opinion of Major Warren Defining
the Legal Right of tho Company.
Has tho Right to Collect Toll in
City, Ho Says.
T. 17. Watklns, sacrctnry of the
Uoulovard company, was asked yester
day by a Tribune repot ter whether or
not the company had anything to say
In regard to the city solicitor's fight
against the company's right to main
tain a toll gate within the city limits.
Mr. Watklns In reply stated that tho
company proposed to maintain the toll
gate where now located, and that the
isttack upon the Uoulovard company
and Its promoters by tho city solicitor
and others xvns not only unfair but
put the ofllcers and stockholders of
the company In n wrong light beforo
the public.
When tho Uoulevard company was
organized a few public spirited citi
zens, realizing the benefit to tho whole
city to be derived from a driving road
leading out of the city practically free
from tallroad crossings and traversing
a beautiful section of mountain coun
try, went to a great deal ot trouble
to raise tho money necessary to build
such a road; over $32,000 was raised
on stock and $17,500 on bonds of the
company.
No large subscriptions were asked
for, as it xvns Intended to make the
enterprise of a public character. Ev
ery stockholder subscribing at the time
xv as told that It was not a money
making enterprise, but purely and sim
ply one to add to the pleasure of tho
stockholders and public generally, as
it xvould practically make a beautiful
park out of that whole section of tho
mountain. The popularity of the road
has been proven by the number using
it, especially for pedestrlans.who urc
allowed the free use of the road.
COMPANY'S IN'Tl.WTION.
Tho company's Intention xvas, nnd
Is now, to spend the revenue derived
from reasonable tolls In maintaining
and extending the roads. Tho road
was built with the leat possible ex
pense and Involved no e.xtrax-agance
or waste and not one dollar of revenue
has been received by an officer or
stockholder of the company up to this
time.
The policy of the company Is to con
tinue to Improve the altiactlveness of
the boulevard nnd should have the sup
port of ever citizen of Scranton, nnd
In place of trying to rob the company
of pint of Its property the city should
support the Houlevarel company In Its
efforts to provide a perfect driveway
nnd make the mountains one -ast
beautiful park. The company has of
fered to sell to the city the part of
the road In the paik limits. Including
the bridge, at less than cost. Tho sale
to include the 100 feet right of way
owned by the company. The bridge'
could not be duplicated todtiy for fiO
per cent, more than the cost to the
ltoulcvard company. Shoulel the city
decide to purchase this part of tho
road the Itoulevnrd company could re
tire the bonds and expend, through tho
saving of Interest charges, n much
larger sum on the roadway for Its fur
ther Improvement. I have not tho data
at hand to correct tha misstatement
that the bridge Is not safe and that
the foundations are not well bedded.
That matter will be referred to J. E.
Crawford, who Is entirely familiar with
the construction and can easily satisfy
the public on that score.
PEDESTRIANS JO FREE.
The public should bear In mind that
only the driving and wheeling public
are required to pay toll, and they can
afford to. Tho walking public have;
free use of the roads, bridge?, etc.,
xvhich undoubtedly adds to the attrac
tiveness of Nay Aug park and extends
their pleasure grounds indefinitely over
the mountains. The beautiful roads
built and maintained by Mr. Scranton
and to which the boulevard gives ac
cess, are In line with the action ot
the public spirited men who built the
boulevard and who only care to man
age and control It now so that the
only desirable drlx-e l:i the neighbor
hood of the city will not bo destroyed
by falling into the hands of parties
who may allow It to be destroyed bv
neglect or use It for their own selfish
objects.
I should be pleased to ha'e you pub
lish the opinion of Mr. Warren, attor
ney tor the company, who gives our
legul position very clearly, as xvell as
the equity of the whole case, and to
which the public are entitled before
forming a hasty opinion:
Mr. C. I). Simpson, President, Nay Aug Falls
and Klmliurst Itmilevard company, city.
Dear Sir: I am in nceipt of jour letter of
June 27th, enclosing copy of concurrent resolu
tion of the councils of tho eit, directing jour
company to remove their toll gate and toll
gatherer from within the limits of the city
and authorizing the city solicitor to take all
necessary steps to prevent jour lompany from
collecting tolls within the limits of the city,
together with notice from the street commis
sioner, asking jour company to oury out the
provisions thereof at nine. In a coi dance with
jour request I have made a careful examination
of the law bearing upon the rights of jour
company to maintain its toll gate and toll gath
erer within the city limits. In this connection
I havo read the opinion submitted to councils
by tho learned city solicitor, ns printed In the
public press, In which he announces that jour
company has no right to maintain Its toll gata
and toll gatherer within tho city limits.
LEGAL QUESTIONS.
I have made a careful examination of the legal
questions Involved. I do not think the caso Is a
close one at all. I believe the city solicitor is
radically wrong and his opinion a tissue of mis
takes and wrong deductions. The cases lie cites
in support ot his contention clearly Justify tho
maintenance ot the gate and the toll gatheier
where you havo located it pursuant to the llceu.e
issued by tho court. It Is a matter of no con
cern to the city that jou did not secure) this
license until lecently.
First, as to the equities of the case: It Is
to be borne In niliul that J'our coniany pur
chased a strip of land through what was prac
tically a wilderness, several years ago, connecting
with the then open streets and thoroughfares
of the city at or near what is now called Nay
Aug Park. At that tlma there were no streets
located along the route of jour boulevard, nor
dicamcd of. There was no Nay Aug Park, even
upon paper, bubicqueiit to your purchase of the

I pun June 11, lliUO, the court of quirtei m'ssIuiis
of this 1 mint i-siii'd .1 license.- to jour com
pinj, permitting and sulfering It tocrcet and tix
such and so m.inj' gates upon and aemss tho
sild mid as would be ncevssary and sufficient
to collect from all person, utheivvi-i' than 011
fniit, tho tolls authorized by tin- sixili duisc of
the thirtieth section of the Act of 'J' '111 Apill,
1571.
REPORT OK VII'JWEHS
This ni tioti of the court was 1 ased upon the
repnit of viewer, appointed nj' the court in ae
1 mil, imp with the Ait, who made their rcpott,
by whiih it appealed that tlie coinpitiy had
iTnU-el and loiismietcd a turnpike roid. about
si-veil miles In length, from a point In tho city
of Siranton at the corner of Mulberry street
and Arthur avenue, to 11 point neir Spring lake
In tlie borough of F.lnihurst. The act provides
that upon such a rcpott fiotn tlie viewcis, tlie
eourt shall, by It3 order, permit ottr company
to fix such and sn many gates upon and acuns
suih road as shall be neccssaiy and sufficient to
collect from all persons, otherwise than on foot,
tho same lolls as therein authorized and grant
ed; and whin stub corporation Is licensed in
manner aforesaid. It shall and limy be lawful
fur thrm to appoint ns many toll gathcreis as
the nwy think proper to collect the tolls.
I pun securing this license then fore, tlie ilujlit to
erect toll gales became a xnteel right in tho
com pan'.
As 1 understand it, putsuant to this license
Issui'il by the court, by appropriate resolution
of tlie board you established toll gates, among
otheis one within tlie limits of the City of
Scranton, a little to the west of the bridge
constiticted by jour company across Itoaring
Ilrook. and there phce-d a toll gatherer to gather
tlie tolls and piovlded for by the Act of As
sembly. There seems to lie In tlie minds of some people
a notion tli.lt It. is a startling thing to hive a
toll gate within tlie city limits. The mlinT is
chuck full of pavements and sidewalks, and car
riages rolling along, and pedestrians Jostling each
other off the sldcwaik, and immense structures
where business and piofesiInii.il men are strug
gling witli each other to get In. This is surely
u city defacto and the public inconvenience
under such circumstances would undoubtedly be
great.
Tills is not the situation, however, at any
point along the line of jour roid and we necel
not consider t lie quistlou ot public iuionun
inice under tho circumstances, u Is a matter
of no moment as bearing upon the law In any
ev cut.
HIS CONCLUSIONS.
I will not weary jou with a citation of the
authorities. I have examined the authorities,
however, and tho text books. Speaking generally
I miy say that nur company mining a way
within the limits of the city of Scranton, from
that fact alone loses none of Its corporate rights
or powers, And I conclude as follows;
7. That the Doulcvard company Is in legal ef
fect specially chartered to erect toll gates on
its line.
2. That the charter takes clfect In this re
spect on the granting of tho license by the court.
.1. The leglslatute having waived its right to
locate toll gates, and letters patent having been
lsstie'd and lecclved upon that basis, it is not
In the power of the court, or of the municipality,
or the legislature to now impose a location which
the chatter does not provide for. 'I lie location
of toll gates as well as number Is wholly with
in the discretion of the company.
4. Toll gates having been elected within the
city limits and the lie e use now obtained for
tlieni, neither the couit nor the iniinlcipalltj',
nor tlie legislature can cause their removal unless
under some proceeding of cmtiitnt domain.
5. Necessaillj, thcnfuir, the company has a
rliiht to retain Its gales us now located, and
there can be no interference except at tho peril
of tho Intrrmeddler.
0. Tho case presented Is not a close one, and
therefuie, the particular facts need not be nee
sssarllj' Invokeel. It Is not necessary to consider
in aid of constntctlou where the point of loca
tion is, or whether it Is a do facto city. There
Is nothing to construe. Tlie law is plain, and
the authority plainly conferred without limita
tion, and without proviso.
7. Tho city solicitor Is radically wrong; and
his opinion, as I have already suggested, is a
tissue of mistakes and wrong deduction.
I am, Very truly yours,
Kverett Warren.

WOELKERS APPEARS
IN A NEW ROLE
DOES A PAUL REVERE STUNT ON
THE SOUTH SIDE.
Sounding n Qong and Driving Madly
Through tho Streets, He Gives
Warning of the Approach of tho
Agents of the Men's Union, Who
Are Bent on Raiding tho Speak
easies He Is Arrested on Three
Charges and Held for Court Other
Arrests for Liquor Law Violations.
Constable Joseph P. Woelkers, of tho
Eleventh ward, was again nrrcsted,
yesteiday. This time he Is prosecuted
by Agent Robert Wilson, of the Men's
union.
The charges against him nre aiding
nnd abetting the violation of tho liquor
laws, assault, and using blasphemous
language on the public highway. Ho
gave ball before Alderman Kasson yes
terday morning In the sum of $500.
Woelkeis, It would appear. Is un
favorably disposed toward tho Men's
union. Incidentally, his brother, John,
was arrested, Saturday last, for keep
ing a speakeasy.
Agent Wilson and a number of his
assistants, one week ago Friday, start
ed out on a tour of Prospect avenue,
which Is, or at least was, fairly honey
combed with holes-ln-the-wall.
They had just emetged from a place
In the 1100 block, where they had made
an nrrest, when Woelkers, It Is alleged, 1
drove wildly past and on nhead ot
them, ringing a gong.whleh Is attached
to the bottom of his carriage, and
shouting at the top of his voice: "Hero
comes Wilson, the spy! CIoko up!
Close up! Don't let him have any
beer!" and so on, Interspersing his
cries with blasphemy and abuse direct
ed against tho union's ngents.
TRIED TO RUN DOWN WILSON.
He continued driving through the
neighborhood for a long time at break
neck speed, continuing the shouts of
warning nnd banging away at his
alarm hell. Once, when Agent Wilson
was crossing the sttcet, Woelkers drove
up and deliberately attempted to run
the agent down, according to Wilson's
statement.
Agent Wilson made n report of the
matter and the executive committee
of the Union nt its next meetlngsdl
rectcd him to proce?d against. Woel
kers nnd prosecute him to tho fullest
extent of the law. This Mr. Wilson
proposese to do.
Constable W. S. IJartlett, one of tho
union's ngents, xvns assaulted yester
day while attempting to servo a war
rant In an alleged speakeasy on the
South Side. He was pounded on the
head xvlth n club and otherwise badly
abused. The assailant has not as yet
been arrested.
The latest at rests for alleged vio
lations of the liquor law are:
Margaret Hums, North Main avenue.
Providence, selling without a license
and selling on Sunday.
James T. Kearney, 16.23 Jackson
street: selling without n license.
Martin ltubegu, 1C02 Prospect ave
nue; selling without a license.
Mrs. Hums gave ball In the sum
of $1,000 befoic Alderman Fldler. Kear
ney and Rubega gave $500 ball each
before Alderman Kasson.
APPLIED FOH A LICENSE.
Kearney told tho representatives of
tho union, after his arrest, that tor
the past five years he has filed an
application for a license at each re
curring term of license court, but
each time ho xva? refused.
Mrs. Hums plac", it Is said, Is the
one complained of In a letter sent to
Mayor Molr recently by a woman
who alleged that her husband spent
most of his time and money there.
Another prosecution, Attorney F. E.
Eeers says. Is to be brought against
"Gentleman Jack" Skelly, who, It ap
peals, persists In openly selling on
Sunday, tlesplte his former arrest, the

It's Growing Very Fast
This bakery business of ours is proving one of the
best features of our stores. We are surprised that the
deinaucl for good bake stuffs is so general. Glad to
know that ours is the right kind; that the selling grows
every day; that we have had to add new bakers in order
to supply the increasing demand.
Bake Stuffs at all our stores.
